Retail Therapy
As the fashion central of the island, the stylish boutiques in Seminyak are still open for business. From the local craftsmen shops to the high-end fashion designer boutiques like Paulina Katarina, and shopping mall like Seminyak Village. All are open for your retail indulgence. Best thing yet, most of these places are also offering their annual end-of-year discounts!
Bask In the Sun
Yes, there are fears of Mount Agung’s ash falls enveloping the whole island, but let this serves as a reminder that presence of ash falls in certain areas are highly dependent on direction and velocity of the wind. Reminders aside, the wind is currently still blowing to the east and southeastern side, hence your sun tanning or sunset sessions here in Seminyak are definitely still going to happen everyday—though not counting Indonesian wet season. Nevertheless, great promotions are popping out around the island like Hotel Indigo Bali Seminyak Beach’s Pool Vibe promo

Plates after plates of scrumptious treats are still being served by many of the amazing restaurants on the island. Even locals are still going out at night to grab some bites to eat!
